Chapter 5: The Roommate
Hermione sat around her apartment for the next few days. Her thoughts couldn't leave the kiss she received from William. She sat back touching her lips, feeling the burning desire to find him and kiss him again. Get a hold of yourself! Hermione sighed once more. It was 12 in the afternoon and any minute her two best friends were going to visit.
She ran around picking up small pieces of garbage here and there when the door knocked. Its them! She ran to the door and opened it. Harry and Ron stood there grinning.
"I'm so glad you guys made it!" Hermione hug them each and let them enter. Harry was the first to enter.
"Nice place 'Mione." Harry said still grinning.
"Yea great place." Ron said. They all made their way to sit on the couch. Hermione conjured them drinks, since she was lazy to get them any and they all discussed the game they will be going to later on that day.

The Quidditch World Cup dome was packed with many witches and wizards. Everyone from Hogwarts was there greeting the trio. Hermione made her way through a noisy crowd and sat herself down on the bleachers. Hermione noticed a familiar voice that she hated so much.
"Can you believe he's not here. The nerve of him to runaway." Pansy Parkinson said to her girl friends who were all Slytherins. Hermione didn't pay much attention to the disgusting outfit she was wearing which screamed FUCK ME but to what she was saying. Who is she talking about? Before Hermione can listen to the rest Harry interrupting her holding drinks. He sat down next to her watching her in wonder.
"You okay?" Harry asked.
"What's wrong?" Ron asked behind him. Hermione looked up and smiled.
"Yes of course." They sat down as the game began. Half way through the game Hermione glanced at the Slytherin boys, Draco Malfoy was missing. I think thats who she was talking about. Hermione shook her head and continued to pay attention to the game.

Hermione finally made her way to the wash room stalls in the basement. She was glad to get away from the noise, her head was spinning. Hermione continued to walk through the corridors until someone pulled her in the corner. Before she could scream her mouth was covered. She struggled against the strong hands that held her. After a minute of pushing and shoving the person let her go and she turned around and slapped the cheek of the person.
"Ow!" The man groaned. Hermione couldn't see him in the darkness.
"Serves you right!" Hermione yelled. The man hiding came out of the shadows and Hermione gasped. "YOU!"
William Mantous stood in front of her holding his cheek. "Yes me! Why did you do that?" Hermione narrowed her eyes.
"Why did you do THAT?" Hermione couldn't believe what had just happened.
"I was trying to grab your attention." He whispered.
"Well you could have called my name." Hermione said. "Sorry about the slap."
"Sorry I should have just called your name." William said calmly.
"What are you doing here anyway?" She asked quizzically.
"Same reason you're here. For the game." He replied.
"Oh." Hermione said quickly. Her heart started beating faster. Here she was alone with the man she couldn't stop thinking about. Hermione looked down afraid he might have seen her blush. William took her chin and raised it to look her in the eyes. His grey dark pools watched her with such concentration.
"Are you okay?" Her uttered. Hermione's mouth wouldn't move so she simply nodded. William took that chance to press his lips against hers in a hungry kiss. Hermione moaned at the gesture and closed her eyes to enjoy the moment. His kiss grew stronger, his tongue licked her lips asking for entrance and she complied. Her arms wrapped around his neck and his hands held her waist.
Williams tongue explored every inch of her mouth and she did the same. Hermione never felt this kind of pleasure in the world it was something she never wanted to leave. William groaned against her lips and suddenly released her. Hermione fluttered her eyes open and watched him.
"What's wrong?" Hermione asked.
"Nothing." He replied slowly bending his head back to kiss her again. Hermione didn't fuss or fight but enjoyed the kiss. He didn't stop until they were both out of breath. Hermione let go of her grip on his shoulders and moved back.
"I should go back. My friends could be waiting." Hermione said breathlessly. William nodded and let her go slowly. Hermione smiled at him, kissing his cheek and walked away.

That night Hermione couldn't sleep. She constantly moved around her bed watching the ceiling. I wonder what he is doing, Hermione thought. After another hour of moving around in her bed Hermione heard a knock. Its one in the morning! Hermione groaned and got off her bed. Walking across the hall she slipped on her white robe and opened the door.
William collapsed at her doorstep shaking. Hermione screamed in shock and held him in her arms. His body had bruises and gashes, his hair was in a mess and his wand was broken. A small tear came to her eye that she didn't expect and quickly wiped it away.
"What in the world happened?" Hermione said.
"They're after me." He whispered. Every movement they made to the living room caused a wince. Hermione wondered who was after him and who would hurt him like this. She ran to her study and took the potion she had given him a while ago. After he drank it he's body relaxed and he lay his head back on the couch. Hermione sat next to him and started to strip off the shirt that was wet from the rain. When she reached around his arms he pulled away from her.
"Don't." William said. Hermione glared at him.
"Don't be silly. Your wet." Hermione went back to taking his shirt off and while he attempted to pull her off she saw the mark. Hermione screamed in shock. She got off the couch and looked at him shaking.
"You're...you're a...a..death EATER!" Hermione stuttered. William looked down at her and put his hands in his face.
"Why didn't you tell me!!?" Hermione screamed in anger. William looked up at her and showed her the full mark which was only half a skull.
"I ran away from him so he wouldn't finish the incantation!" He yelled back at her. "That's why I ran away Hermione! He was after me! Voldemort was after me!" He looked back down at the floor. Hermione's expression from anger changed. She felt a guilt inside her and she ran back to sit next to him.
"Are you okay? I'm so so sorry!" Hermione cried. He put his arms around her and Hermione lay her head on his chest. After they held each other for almost an hour Hermione moved her head.
"What are you going to do?" Hermione asked. William's sparkling grey eyes were now dark and worried. He looked at her.
"I don't know. I've been hiding for days now." William said. Hermione felt like crying for him when she thought of an idea.
"Oh I know!" Hermione jumped up from the couch and looked at him. "You can live with me!" Williams eyes narrowed.
"No I can't live with you." He said getting up himself.
"You have to! Voldemort won't know where you are." Hermione said beaming. William opened his mouth but then closed it. "It's settled then." Hermione said happily. The guy of my dreams will live with me. Hermione wrapped her arms around his neck. William held her around the waist and thanked her in a whisper.

His head lay in the dark, watching the flickering lights of the sky seeping through the window. William closed his eyes forcing himself to sleep. I was so stupid today, I got myself caught because I wanted to see her. He opened his eyes listening to his breathing. His head was spinning with a hundred thoughts but his heart had one thing on its mind. Hermione Granger.
He thought about her eyes, her hair and her remarkable lips. William knew he couldn't stay away from her now that she had allowed him to stay in her home. He was grateful but also angry. How can I run away from these thoughts about her if I see her everyday now. He knew he couldn't run away because for some reason even if he had the chance to run out of her life, he couldn't. After another few hours of endlessly thinking about the chestnut hair, chocolate eyes and curved body of Hermione Granger, he fell asleep.
